In a court filing last Friday, Delta alleged that CrowdStrike should be on the hook for the airline's more than $500 million in losses-partly because CrowdStrike has admitted that it should have done more testing and staggered deployments to catch the bug before a wide-scale rollout that disrupted businesses worldwide.
Delta has further alleged that CrowdStrike postured as a certified best-in-class security provider who 'never cuts corners' while secretly designing its software to bypass Microsoft security certifications in order to make changes at the core of Delta's computing systems without Delta's knowledge.
As a result of CrowdStrike's failure to use a staged deployment and without rollback capabilities, the Faulty Update caused widespread and catastrophic damage to millions of computers, including Delta's systems, crashing Delta's workstations, servers, and redundancy systems.
